Full Job Description

About the Role

Umbrella Roofing is a growing roofing company serving Colorado’s mountain communities, and we’re looking for a dependable, detail-oriented Accounting Specialist to join our team.

This is a hands-on accounting position with primary responsibility for accounts payable and payroll administration, along with supporting several important accounting and compliance functions across the company.

You’ll work closely with our accounting and leadership teams while serving as the internal owner of our payroll process and liaison between our payroll provider and QuickBooks Online.

We are also looking for someone who is comfortable with technology and isn’t afraid to get their hands dirty learning new systems. You don’t need to be an IT expert, but you should be curious, resourceful, and willing to troubleshoot, learn new software, and look for better ways to get things done.

If you’re someone who likes keeping things accurate, staying ahead of deadlines, solving discrepancies, and making sure the details are handled correctly, you’ll fit well in this role.

Why You’ll Like Working Here

Stable, established company with a strong local reputation
Full-time, year-round position with a consistent Monday–Friday schedule
A role with real ownership and responsibility—not just data entry
Opportunity to work closely with experienced accounting and leadership professionals
Team culture that values reliability, initiative, communication, and follow-through
Opportunity to learn and work with modern accounting and business technology
Opportunity to help improve accounting processes and systems as the company continues to grow

Key Responsibilities

Accounts Payable

Manage day-to-day accounts payable processing
Review invoices for accuracy, proper approval, coding, and supporting documentation
Maintain organized and accurate vendor records
Assist with resolving vendor discrepancies and payment questions
Support accurate entry and reporting within QuickBooks Online

Payroll Administration

Serve as the internal owner of the company’s payroll system
Act as the primary liaison between the companies payroll system and QuickBooks Online
Coordinate and process payroll information accurately and on schedule
Review payroll information for accuracy and resolve discrepancies
Maintain accurate employee payroll records
Coordinate payroll onboarding and setup for new employees
Assist employees and managers with payroll-related questions as needed

Employee & Payroll-Related Accounting

Process and track SIMPLE retirement plan contributions
Maintain accurate payroll-related accounting records and reconciliations
Help ensure payroll information is properly reflected in QuickBooks Online

Workers’ Compensation

Prepare monthly workers’ compensation reporting
Maintain supporting payroll and classification records
Assist with workers’ compensation audits and information requests

Credit Cards & Expense Management

Review and manage company credit card approvals
Ensure transactions have appropriate documentation and coding
Follow up on missing receipts, approvals, or other required information

Systems & Technology

Work comfortably across multiple accounting, payroll, and business software platforms
Learn new systems and processes as the company continues to improve its technology
Troubleshoot routine system or workflow issues and take initiative in finding solutions
Look for opportunities to simplify processes, reduce manual work, and improve accuracy
Be willing to test new tools and workflows rather than relying solely on “the way we’ve always done it”

What We’re Looking For

Minimum 2 years of accounting or bookkeeping experience
Payroll experience required
Accounts payable experience strongly preferred
QuickBooks experience preferred
Comfortable with technology and learning new software
Able to navigate multiple systems and figure things out independently
Curious and resourceful when troubleshooting technology or process issues
Open to new tools, automation, and better ways of doing things
Strong Excel skills or willingness to continue developing them
Strong attention to detail and accuracy
Highly organized and able to manage recurring deadlines
Comfortable following up with employees, managers, and outside providers when information is needed
Dependable and able to take ownership of responsibilities without constant supervision
Strong written and verbal communication skills
Bilingual English/Spanish preferred

Experience with QuickBooks Online, construction accounting, or the roofing industry is a plus, but not required.

Benefits

Paid Time Off (PTO)
Paid Holidays
Retirement Plan
Health Insurance / Health Insurance Reimbursement
Consistent Monday–Friday schedule
Year-round employment

Who Will Be Successful Here?

You don’t need to be a Controller or senior-level accountant to succeed in this position. We’re looking for someone who is really good at the fundamentals—accurate, organized, dependable, comfortable with technology, and willing to take ownership.

You’ll probably enjoy this role if you’re the person who notices when something doesn’t look right, follows through until it’s resolved, and takes pride in knowing payroll was correct, vendors were handled properly, and the accounting details didn’t fall through the cracks.

You’re also someone who doesn’t freeze when you’re introduced to a new piece of software. You’re willing to click around, learn how things work, ask good questions, troubleshoot problems, and figure out how technology can make the job easier and more efficient.

We value people who are willing to learn, adapt, and improve—not just follow a process because that’s how it has always been done.

If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you.

How to Apply

Please submit your resume through Indeed and include a brief note describing:

1. Your experience processing or administering payroll

2. Your accounts payable or accounting experience

3. The accounting/payroll systems you’ve worked with

4. An example of a new technology or software system you had to learn

5. Whether you are bilingual in English and Spanish

Pay: $28.00 - $32.00 per hour

Benefits:

Health insurance
Opportunities for advancement
Paid time off
Retirement plan

Work Location: In person
